Beschrijving keerzijde Two winged Victories stand facing one another in the field, each holding a staff or palm, jointly supporting between them a large wreath enclosing a votive inscription in four lines: VOT / XX / MVLT / XXX, celebrating the twentieth anniversary vows and anticipating the thirtieth. The scene is rendered with symmetrical elegance typical of late Constantinian gold coinage. The reverse legend VICTORIAE DD NN AVGG — 'Victories of our two Lords the Augusti' — encircles the composition, and the mint mark TR appears in the exergue, denoting the Treveri (Trier) mint.

Aanvullende informatie

Constantius II issued this solidus from the Treveri mint — modern Trier — during a period when the western workshops were operating under the authority of Constans, his younger brother, who controlled the Gallic provinces. The two emperors had divided the empire after the execution of their brother Constantine II in 340, and the VICTORIAE DD NN AVGG reverse type was a deliberate joint proclamation, tying both rulers to a shared military victory narrative despite their increasingly fractious relationship. Constans would be dead by 350, overthrown by the usurper Magnentius.
